The Boy Scouts started collapsing in the 1980s when men started leaving their kids.
When men would rather abandon their homes because things got difficult…the children suffer. It takes a while, but this is what you get: Women running things and the government raising your kids.
Thanks guys. I hope that new younger wife was worth it.
I was in the Cub Scouts a short while around 1960. There were no male adults involved at all. Mothers were the only ones. Same with the PTA back then.
